Special and Interdisciplinary Engineering Fields

Are you an artist, musician, or athlete? Wouldn’t it be great to be able to combine your talent and passion with a career? There are plenty of traditional, nontraditional, and interdisciplinary fields of engineering that might just match up with your interests, whether they involve design, architecture, law, business, geography, psychology, or education. As an acoustical engineer, you might develop a state-of-the-art sound studio, or as a sports engineer you might create equipment that tests the performance of athletes. You might also work in “human factors engineering,” a fascinating field that takes human behavior and psychology into account in developing products and systems.
